New Poster for DREDD 3D Starring Karl Urban
Here’s a brand new poster for Pete Travis’ DREDD 3D starring Karl Urban, Lena Headey, Olivia Thirlby, Langly Kirkwood, and Deobia Oparei. The film takes place in a violent, futuristic city where the police have the authority to act as judge, jury and executioner. A cop (Karl Urban) teams with a trainee to take down a gang that deals the reality-altering drug, SLO-MO. The film was well-received at comic-con and will play at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival as part of the Midnight Madness program. The film is supposedly incredibly violent and action-packed so I’m definitely hoping I’ll be able to check it out with the Midnight Madness crowd. Poster courtesy of Yahoo.
DREDD takes us to the wild streets of Mega City One, the lone oasis of quasi-civilization on Cursed Earth. Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) is the most feared of elite Street Judges, with the power to enforce the law, sentence offenders and execute them on the spot – if necessary. The endlessly inventive mind of writer Alex Garland and the frenetic vision of director Peter Travis bring DREDD to life as a futuristic neo-noir action film that returns the celebrated character to the dark, visceral incarnation from John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra’s revered comic strip.
